Abstract: In this paper we consider the rational eigenvalue problem governing the relevant energy levels and wave functions of a three dimensional quantum dot. We present iterative projection methods of Arnoldi and of Jacobi–Davidson type for computing a few eigenpairs of this system. Solving the projected nonlinear eigenvalue problems we take advantage of a minmax characterization of the eigen...

We study best response dynamics in continuous time for continuous concave-convex zero-sum games and prove convergence of its trajectories to the set of saddle points, thus providing a dynamical proof of the minmax theorem. Consequences for the corresponding discrete time process with small or diminishing step-sizes are established, including convergence of the fictitious play procedure.

This paper discusses the minimax location problem with fuzzy locations of customers on a plane bounded by a convex polygon under a minmax criterion. Three types of fuzzy programming are presented for this problem according to different criteria, and Euclidean distances are assumed as the scenario. For solving the proposed models, a hybrid intelligent algorithm is designed.

[1] We propose that by using orthogonal polarizations for alternating bauds of an alternating code, improvements are available both in cycle length, by means of using weak condition alternating codes, and in code performance through a reduction of autocorrelation function estimate variances by a factor of 4. This means an increase in the speed of incoherent scatter radar experiments by the same...

We report on lasing at room temperature and at telecommunications wavelength from photonic crystal nanocavities based on InAsP/InP quantum dots. Such laser cavities with a small modal volume and high quality factor display a high spontaneous emission coupling factor (beta). Lasing is confirmed by measuring the second-order autocorrelation function. A smooth transition from chaotic to coherent e...

background: using spatial analysis tools to determine the spatial patterns of china province-level perinatal mortality and using spatial econometric model to examine the impacts of health care resources and different socio-economic factors on perinatal mortality. methods: the global moran’s i index is used to examine whether the spatial autocorrelation exists in selected regions and moran’s i s...

Glossary AutoA prefix literally meaning self; spatial autocorrelation means self-correlation, or values within a given variable are correlated, resulting in the variable being correlated with itself. Correlation A description of the nature and degree of a relationship between a pair of quantitative variables. Geary Ratio An index of spatial autocorrelation, involving the computation of squared ...

Spatial autocorrelation is a method of Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis (ESDA). The latter set of methods allow for the study and understanding of the spatial distribution and spatial structure as well as they allow for detecting spatial dependence or autocorrelation in spatial data. More specifically, spatial autocorrelation is the correlation between the values of a single variable that is s...

2 Technique Determining a velocity ACF from experimental data is not a straightforward task, especially for laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV) data. Unlike measurements obtained from a hot-wire probe, the LDV signal is inherently intermittent by nature due to the random arrival of particles at the measurement volume. An advantage of the Poisson distributed arrival times is that the Nyquist criteri...
